Pastor Schwieger's Corner

Happy New Year! With September we begin a brand new Ministry Year filled with many recurring events and ministries and many new ventures that will impact our community with the Gospel of Jesus! It’s pretty exciting seeing all of our Preschool teachers getting their rooms ready for the Opening day of classes…our Sunday School and Weekday School teachers are making their plans and Confirmation family interviews are finished in anticipation of classes that begin on September 11.

Have you ever noticed that this month seems to “turn a page” when it comes to attitudes and schedules? We are thinking about college and professional football, school schedules and homework with the kids, less grass cutting and cooler temperatures. September brings awareness that major celebrations are just around the corner…Thanksgiving, Advent and Christmas.

And with this new Ministry year beginning…might I suggest perhaps something new for you…a “next step” so to speak? I sincerely would like you to consider joining one of our Discipleship Groups. Our purpose is to group in our own discipleship so that we might be equipped to share our faith in those opportunities that God presents to us to disciple others. There are great friendships that are made, encouragement in life given and a sense of “walking together” in being part of something that is transformational. Got Questions? Call me!
